This Friday, October 25th, Curitiba will have a memorable night for lovers of extreme metal. The British band Napalm Death will share the stage with giants of the Brazilian scene, Krisiun and Ratos de Porão . A historic event that promises to electrify the audience at CWB Hall. The opening acts will be the bands Ethel Hunter and Manger Cadavre?
The British band returns after a record-breaking show in the capital of Paraná in 2023. Both Ratos de Porão and Krisiun also always draw large crowds when they play in the capital of Paraná.

Napalm Death
One of the most important bands in extreme metal, Napalm Death emerged in the 1980s as a punk band that evolved its music to supersonic levels, relying on unrestrained drumming speed and unintelligible screams.
With a bold musical approach, the group became the most important reference point for the style that has since solidified: grindcore. Albums like Scum (1987) and From Enslavement to Obliteration (1988) laid the foundation for an entire scene.
However, the band never stopped daring and testing new sounds. At the beginning of the 1990s, they flirted with hardcore death metal, groove metal, and even rap, and entered the current millennium with a reinvigorated sound, with classics like Enemy of the Music Business (2002) and The Code is Red… Long Live the Code (2005).
Over the past 35 years, Napalm Death has released 17 studio albums, the most recent being Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism (2020), in addition to the EP Resentment Is Always Seismic – A Final Throw of Throes (2022), which surprisingly showcase even more expansive sounds that elevate the group's sound to another level.
Brazilian attractions
Krisiun, originally from Rio Grande do Sul, rose to prominence in the 1990s and conquered the world playing brutal, fast, and technical death metal; currently, they are on tour promoting their album Mortem Solis .
Ratos de Porão conquered the world, becoming a reference and influence for all punk/hardcore and metal bands from every corner of the planet. With over 40 years on the road, their most recent album Necropolítica
Those who attend will also have the privilege of seeing two rising names in the current Brazilian scene: the São Paulo-based band Manger Cadavre?, who bet on a mix of metal, hardcore and crust with a lot of weight and aggression, always presenting a fierce evolution in their studio work and a lot of power live.
The Curitiba-based band Ethel Hunter – with ten years on the road – opens the night, focusing on classic death metal. The band, which has already shared the stage with important international groups, plans to release a new album soon.
